Socialism in the 21st Century

 
Anil Rajimwale (Author) ALPF Annual Workshop Series
Synopsis

The present collection contains papers of the first national workshop organised by the All India Progressive Forum (AIPF) on '21st Century Socialism' in Hyderabad. Socialism is a controversial issue, rendered more controversial by the great collapse of the Soviet Union and the East European socialist regimes. The collapse has reignited the controversies on the nature, path and viability of socialism in its many interpretations.

In the meantime the scientific and technological revolution has added new features to the theory of social transformation and has reopened many issues settled by history of individual revolution. The papers discuss frankly many old and new aspects of socialism and social revolution and transformation. They also seek to add many new features. They particularly emphasize the notion that socialism of '21st century' will be different, in many crucial ways, than that of the 20th century.
